Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the Search, Solve, Create, and Share (SSCS) learning model and its impact on the students’ creative problem-solving ability. The study was conducted on eighth-grade students of Junior High School 24 (SMPN 24) Bandar Lampung, Indonesia, on the Substances Pressure subject matter. This is quasi-experimental with non-equivalent control group design. The independent sample t-test showed that the SSCS model influences the students’ creative problem-solving ability, of which the experimental class is higher than the control class. Furthermore, the results of the effect size obtained the d value of 2.39, indicating the SSCS learning model is effective for the students' creative problem-solving ability which belongs to the high category.
